Ludo

Sorry - this product is suspended. The craftsman who used to make
it has retired and we have not yet found a replacement. Hopefully we will
resurrect the product in the future but it might be years before this
happens, regrettably.

It's been a long time in the planning but worth the wait. Masters
Traditional Games is proud to make available these unique, extremely
high quality boards in two styles. Hand-made to our own commission
by an experienced Marquetry craftshop - you won't find the elegant
boards on this page anywhere else.

For the games enthusiast or any lover of fine wooden objects, the
first board is faced entirely with natural wood. The pieces and
inlays on the board are from four carefully chosen contrasting woods
to distinguish the players on the board. But, it doesn't stop there
- together with the backdrop, squares and other board features,
there are a total of 9 different woods including Ebony, Yew, Oak
and Walnut combining to make a game that is fit for a King.

Ludo is, in fact, the modern classic children's version of the
ancient Indian game Pachisi. But, just
because Ludo is designed for children doesn't mean that they should
have to put up with horrible plastic pieces on a thin card board!

Our other board is made in colourful pastel shades of dyed inlaid
wood. It is a beautiful hand-made wooden game with bright pieces
that will appeal to youngsters. Guaranteed to be passed down the
family for generations to come....

Board dimensions are 36 cm (14 inches) square, rules, 16 disks
and 2 dice are included. Note that this game does not come with
a storage box. However, we can provide a special hand-made Oak storage
box into which the board slots. This product contains small parts that represent a choking hazard for small children.
Not suitable for children under 5 years old.
